and short haul clause of the Pope rail
road bill, that meeting to which all
are invited will be held at the capitol
Saturday, June 1, at 10 a. M, to hear
the application of the Minneapolis IL
st. Louis Railway company for sus-
pension of the section referred to. The
circular contains copy of the applica-
ton of General Freight Agent Kimhall
for the suspension. He wrote that OH
account of the short mileage of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee Il st. Paul from St.
Paul to Minneapolis, and Minnesota
Transfer to Red Wing, Northtield, Can
non Falls, Faribault, Dundas, Water
ford and other points ON the
Cannon Valley division, and of
the Minnesota IL Northwestern
to Randolph, the Minneapolis
IL st. Louis was compelled to abandon
business between st. Paul, Minneapo-
lis, Minnesota Transfer and the points
mentioned, on account of its circuitOuS
route via Waterville, or else reduce its
rates materially to intermediate points,
ready unreasonably low. What he de-
sires is relief by being allowed to make
the same rates to the above named
points as are made by its competitors
without having to reduce its present
rates to intermediate points. A COM
pariSon is given between the rates of
the Chicago, Milwaukee " st. Paul road
and the Minneapolis Il st. Louis to Red
Wing, Northfield, Faribault and Can
non Falls. In class l there is a differ
ence of II cents to Red Wing, cents to
Northtield, 2 cents to Faribault and 4
cents to Cannon Falls, and the rates of
the Milwaukee road are correspondingly
lower down to class E, being i'll the
last class cents difference to North
field, and cent to the other points.
The distance of the Minneapolis IL st.
Louis is longer than that of the Milwau-
kee by so miles i'll the run to Red Wing,
81 miles TO Northfeld, 20 miles to Fari-
bault and 50 miles to Cannon Falls.
These rates are also in competition with
river rates. Mr.. Kimball explained that
his company could not afford to reduce
its rates to all its intermediate points,
to the given figures of its competitors,
and he didn't think it was the intention
of the law to bar any road from doing
business to all portions of its line, and
there was no discrimination in making
the same rates as its competitors. He
explained that the Minneapolis IL st.
Louis was losing business daily on ac-
count of its higher rates.

PAUL MARTINS DEAL.
How He UnconsciOusly Made /;
Poor Widow Wealthy.

ssHow's traffic?" said Paul Martin, the
West side boomer, yesterday, in answer
to the query of a GLOBE reporter. ''Why,
it's away up. We have to shut up shop
once in awhile, of course, to go over to
a ball game, for to indulge in an old
chestnut, "a little nonsense now and
then is relished by the wisest men,"
Paul gave himself away a few min
utes later III pretty little story that
illustrates how it has been possible for
men to make fortunes in West side
property during, the past two
years. He said that several years
ago he purchased lot on
the corner of Ducas street and Fair
field avenue for a few dollars and held
it. The Robert street bridge scheme
hadn't then come to the surface, and
property in that neighborhood wasn't
increasing in value very rapidly. One
day Paul sat in his office with his feet
piled up Oh the desk, when an old Irish
lady came in and told him she had about
$1,000 that she would like to invest in
good real estate. He said he thought he
could make no more profitable invest
ment for the old lady than tG sell her his
lot on the corner of Ducas street and
Fairfield avenue, so he drew up deed
and gave the old lady title to the lot
for $4,000. He had made few hundred
dollars off the deal, and the old lady's
money was safely invested.
HAS she got the property now?" in
quired the reporter.
Yes" replied Paul, "she's got half
of it; the other half she sold few
months ago for 5000, and she has been
offered $4,000 great big round dollars for
the half she still holds"

gainst 800 that the Detroits would

against 800 that the Detroits would
lose.
Hes full; don't have any truck with
him, remarked one man.
"A little OFF his base" commented an
other, and the man from Detroit
couldn't get any more bets.
"Where are you from?" asked the man
who had bet on the New Yorks.
Me! Pm from Detroit, Minn., and
we've got er bail club up there this year
thet can rip any club in the state up the
back. They play ther New Yorks, er
fresh kind ov er club jest got tergether
at New York Mills, terday, an here
money thet earned by hard work on
ther log drive thet says they can kEock
ther tar out Ov EN-"
just then he heard big yell and wild
clapping of hands from the crowd, and
looking up TO the blackboard he saw
that the New YorkS had won i'll the last
inning. Pulling his hat down over his
eyes, the log driver from Detroit went
out somewhat in the hole as to money
and as to who the New Yorks and De-
trOitS really were.

HE BET ON DETROIT.
A Detroit, Minn., Man Goes 4
Against the New York Mills


A Detroit, Minn., Man Goes
Against the New York Mills
Club.
The Detroit-New York game created
good deal of interest at the Turf Ex-
change yesterday, and considerable
speculation on the outcome was done on
the side. A little past o'clock heavy
set man with flannel shirt on and his
trousers held up by strap around his
waist, wandered through the swinging
doors and mixed up with the shifting
crowd of pool buyers. He had been
there about ten minutes when slick
looking man with white tie and silk
hat yelled:
"I'll bet $40 to s. that New York
wins"
Pm yer meat" quietly said the
heavy man with a flannel shirt, ''put
up yer stuff"
The money went up and the slick
looking man with a bland smile said:
perhaps you'd like to bet twenty to
forty the same way"
''Waal, l should say So" replied the
other, reaching down into his hip pocket
and pulling out roll of bills, from
which he selected fresh twenty and
laid it beside the slick mans money.
The scores kept coming i'll with first
one club ahead and then the other.
Whenever the Detroit club was in the
lead the man in the flannel shirt would
toss his black slouch hat mp III the air
and yell for Detroit. The game was
very close, and at the eighth inning the
Detroit man showed signs of insanity,
His laugh sounded like the wind
blowing through =. fence with
loose pickcts. He dcIuged the floor with.
tobacco juice. He waved his hat wildly
iE the air and made remarks about De-
troit having tle dandy club this year.
At last lie pulled theSoll of bills from
MS hip pocket and lifting it up over the
heads of the people, insinuatcd In n
loud voice that hc would consider it IL
favor If anybody would bet him 81

THE MENDOZA STATION.
Citizens and the Milwaukee Off
ciaIs Have q Hearing.

A committee of Mendoza citizens ap-
peared before the railway commission
ers yesterday morning with three COM
plants against the Chicago, Milwaukee
& st. Paul Railway company. Com
plant No. was that the Milwaukee
road did not recognize the name of Men
dota i'll its time tables; No. 2, that there
was no station there, it having been
burned; No. 3, that if station should
be located at the same place that loca-
ton would not be satisfactory. The
Mendoza people claimed that the loca-
ton of the station at st. Paul Junction
was not at Mendoza. and they are
anxious to get it inside the village.
Supt. Case appeared for the Milwaukee
road and explained that the company
was willing to remedy the two matters
first mentioned, by putting up station
and including Mendoza in its timetables
and other printed matter, but as to the
question of locating the station the COM
pany felt that under the law it was COM
PEELED to provide a station at St. Paul
Junction, where the transfer is. The
railroad commissioners listened to both
sides, and concluded that the question
of locating the station must be settled
by the Milwaukee company and the citi-
ZenS of Mendoza themselves.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Important Actions Taken by the
Inspectors Last Night.

inspectors Last Night.
The board of education held an ad-
jOurned meeting last evening. Inspec-
tors Schurmeier and Wampler were alb
sent. There is enough money on hand
to continue the school in district No. s
for another year, but the board
thinks the school should be
under the jurisdiction of the CITY board.
and the question of its continuance was
referred to the committee on schools. A
communication was offered to the effect
that the school at Como should be 10
Gated at Warrendale, and the matter
was referred to the committee on
schools. Supt. Taylor made verbal
report, recommending one session day
at the Jefferson school, from $50
a. m. to 1880 p. III. Excavations
are being made for the addition
to the building and the continuous blast
ing of rock interfereS with the work of
the pupils. The report was adopted.
The committee on real estate recon-
mended that competent person be en-
gagged to supervise the work of putting
III the steam heating apparatus in the
various school houses during the sum-
mer months at salary not to exceed
500 per month. This was
adopted. The teachers of
the training school were granted
permission to use the high school hall
for the graduation exercises June "A.
An invitation will be extended to the
public to attend the exercises. F. f.
Wilde, chairman of committee from
the West st. Paul Citizens union, was
allowed TO speak and said that it was
understood that it had been decided to
dispose of the
HUMBOLDT school. PROPERTY
and buy the Griffin property, and that
the West Side union had appointed a
committee to wait upon the board and
TO protest against the selling of the
property at present Inspector Postle-
thWalte, as chairman of the real estate
committee. stated that the committee
had investigated the matter thoroughly,
and had found that it would cost 5000
to prepare the grounds before the con-
tractor would take the contract for
building All addition to the old building.
He said that the latter would cost
about S45,C00, and when completed the
building would have cost sS0,O0O. They
had ascertained that they could dispose
of the old building for $4,000. Accord
ing, to the present plans the new
elghteen-room building, including the
lot will cost the board about SlS. .OOO.
Besides this the old building is located
on what is destined to be business
street, with street ears running by the
door. In view of these facts, the com
mittee had deemed the new location
preferable. Upon being assured that
the old site would not be sold for
year, the committee withdrew, saying
that they had no repr0aches to
offer, but that they had come
